“Let the bodies hit the floor!”
A line from a great hard rock song. Cant wait for the implosion so that I can get a nice home in CV for 200k.
All the fools who had to live like the rich on credit will learn the hard way soon.

ParticipantThe coming Alt A implosion is one of the centerpieces for my macro arguments about not buying a house now.
Certainly some vintages of Alt-A ARMs are performing very poorly. (see here: http://globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com/2008/04/closer-look-at-arms-reset-problem.html)
I think the option ARMs are a much bigger problem than ALT-a in general.
Consider the reset chart shown below. The bulk of the ALT-A loans start resetting in 2010-2011. SInce this chart was put together in 2007, the bulk of these are likely 5/1 ARMs originated in 2005-2006.
Q. What was the typical rate for 5/1 ARMs originated in 2005-2006 ?
A. between 5.5 – 6%
Q. If these loans were to reset today, what rate would they reset to ?
A. about 5.5 %
I have to conclude that problems in the “second wave” of mortgage resets will more likely be due to Option Arms than Alt-a resets.

GuestThe chart does speak for itself, but I believe the option ARM folks probably have more wherewithal to refi into something more conventional than the subprimes.
